Hello fellow members:

Anyone have trouble with kidney stones post op? I produce Calcium oxalate stones. At one point I was passing one a month. Ive since gone down to one every 6-8 weeks. Anyone else the same problem? Ive seen numerous specialist, tried a bunch of treatments with no help. The common theme was drink more Water... as most of us know is very difficult at 3-4 months post-op. Some of my treatments include Potassium Citrate, diruetics, mass doses of calcium and of course lots of water.

The majority are small stones... 5-8 mm but they still hurt like a b****. Ive had larger ones.

I passes 4-5 stones in the years prior to surgery, immediately after surgery i started passing every month. I was warned that that may be the case but chose GBP anyway and would still chose it if given the choice today.

Anyone in the same boat as me??

I have a YouTube vid of my journey if anyones interested. Look thru my profile.

I work for a urologist, google calcium OX. Diet. And yes most of the stones your are getting are due to dehydration. I get uric acid stones from to much Protein... Stones suck, didn't very one till last year and thought I was dying. Id have more kids before I ever pass another stone.
